He has won a number of honours including a nomination for an Academy Award for the title role in Cyrano de Bergerac and the Golden Globe award for Best Actor in Green Card. In addition to a number of American awards, Depardieu is a Chevalier of the Légion d'honneur, Chevalier of the Ordre national du Mérite and has twice won the César Award for Best Actor.
Depardieu spent more time on the street than in the classroom and left school at 13.
Gerard crossed over into the American film market by co-starring in the 1990 film Green Card. He has since acted in many English language films including. The Man in the Iron Mask, 102 Dalmatians, and Last Holiday.
More recently, he has played Obélix in the three Astérix movies in which he is said to have discovered Melanie Laurent when she was 14. In 2010 Depardieu signed a contract with Bank Zachodni WBK, a Polish bank, to appear in its commercials..
Depardieu is co-owner of a winery in Condrieu, in the Northern Rhone, with partner Alain Paret, where the duo make wines using the viognier grape. Their Lys de Volan Condrieu frequently receives excellent reviews in the wine press. Depardieu became Paret's partner after tasting the wine in a restaurant. He then called Paret and offered to buy a share of the winemaking operation.
In a interview with Stefan Grisseman, published in the September 2010 issue of the Austrian magazine Profil, Depardieu made scathing comments about Juliette Binoche. While promoting her film Copie Conforme in the UK, Binoche commented about these remarks to film magazine Empire.
